Above all else, consistency is the key to achieving results. Being consistent with your nutrition, your workout routine, and daily check-ins with your mental and emotional health is the only way you will see serious positive results, in your body and your life. Most people think you need a million and one gadgets, programs and/or trainers to make this a reality, but to be honest…you can do all of this with just one little helper.

GuavaPass is your one-stop-shop for workout options, exercise scheduling, healthy eating, lifestyle balance tips, and everything in between that combine to build the easiest and most accountable fitness routine you could get.

Here are the 7 most important components of any routine, and how GuavaPass gives you just that.

1. Incorporating strength, cardio and flexibility into your training

While we all have our preferences when it comes to our favourite way to sweat, the best fitness routine is one that is balanced. Weight training will get you that muscle tone, but cardio is what will bring out the definition you bust your ass to achieve. However, the amount of cardio and weight training you do will depend on your current fitness goal—be it to lose fat or to gain muscle. With the range of classes available, you’ll be able to tailor your workout plan to achieve the results you desire.

2. Making time in the day, every day

With studios all over the city, there’s almost certainly bound to be a studio near both your workplace and home. There really are no valid excuses to miss out on a good sweat sesh—you can pop into a studio close to your office before or after, or even during your lunch break! Working out on a tight schedule has never been so easy.

3. Choosing nutritious and wholesome foods to fuel your mind and body

Part and parcel of achieving a strong and healthy body also hinges on what you eat, what you wear, and how you treat yourself. A common complaint is that living healthy can be so expensive, so we’re here to help—GuavaPerks gives members a variety of discounts and deals for healthy brands. This encompasses dining, beauty, apparel, fitness classes, and even getaways! With a myriad of options to choose from, you’ll be well on your way to being the epitome of health

4. Don’t allow travel to hinder your routine

With laziness often superseding our motivation to exercise, we tend to jump at vacations and business trips as opportunities to slack on our routines. We excuse this behaviour by proclaiming that “there was no gym” or that “drop-in rates were too expensive”. With GuavaPass having a multi-city function and with it being active in 11 different cities across Asia and the Middle East (and counting!), you’ll have to throw those excuses out the window.

5. Plan, plan, plan!

Having a routine means having a plan—good thing GuavaPass allows you to book your classes up to 10 days in advance! This way, you can schedule your commitments around your workouts, not vice versa.

We get it, some days it’s a massive chore to attend a workout. Cue GuavaPass: the gym buddy that holds you accountable. With a late cancellation fee of $15 (if you cancel within the late cancellation window, usually 5 to 6 hours before the class) and a no-show fee of $20 or one class credit (if you’re on a class package), miss a class and you’ll have to literally pay for it. If this isn’t motivation to drag your sleepy self to that spin class you booked at 7am, then I don’t know what is.

7. Stay educated on fitness and wellness, optimising your routine as you develop

As a GuavaPass member, you don’t have to go looking for fitness, health and wellness tips—they go straight to your inbox with our bi-weekly newsletter! Stay updated with articles on healthy recipes, local healthy food stops, new workouts in your city, and research from leading industry experts on physical, emotional and mental health.
